    Do you recall the make and color of the tile? Is it glass or porcelain?

    Hello dmlejeune...thanks to Todd Miller's online help I ended up installing the tiles in my new kitchen and love them! They are a glass subway tile in 'sage green' . Here is the link: *hint order samples...the online pic is not so good.

    By the way....I did not use the light gray grout....used white and glad I did. My kitchen is small and needed the contrast.

    Your tiles look more aqua blue than sage green like your link. What color is the "real" color? Thanks!

    Hi Toni,

    Great Question. Every monitor and computer screen will show colors differently. It is very important to always see an ACTUAL SAMPLE of the material you want to use before you purchase it. In a perfect world you would look at that sample in the same light as it will receive in the room or area it is going to be located or installed in. This is because even natural daylight changes color from sunrise to sunset as well as from eastern orientations to western orientations. Additionally the color temperature of the light bulbs and the type of light bulbs will also affect how you Perceive the color of the product you are selecting.

    In answer to your specific question, the tile I believe is called "Sage Green", by the manufacturer, but it definitely has a bit of Aqua tints in it.


    Sorry for the long explanation, I hope this helps.


    Todd.

    Toni...the color is most definitely (and imo inappropriately) called 'Sage Green'. The actual color is a blue green and does not look like the color sample on the retailer's website. I can post a picture of my kitchen showing the 'sage' tiles if you like. You can also order a sample from the company.
